        Verdict

        It’s almost three years since Venturous last won on Turf but The Green Man has won his last two, though is effectively 11lb higher than at York with Kaiya Fraser only able to claim 5lb now. Stuart Williams’ sprinters are always worth a second look here and ABOVE is no exception. He placed three times on the track last year off higher marks and Luke Catton takes off a further 5lb today. Ernie's Valentine has been getting closer but the others are harder to predict.
